$1/$2, Straddle is on to $5
V1 in SB, stack $415, average fish
Hero in BB, $490
V2 in the UTG straddle, $220, pretty loose player

CO raises to $15, V1 in the SB calls, hero has A7cc in the BB and calls, V2 in the UTG straddle calls.

Pot $60

Flop Ah8d7d
Checks through.

Turn 2c
V1 checks, hero bets $40, V2 raises to $100, CO folds, V1 jams for ~$400 effective. Hero?

What are you beating?

Ax high card, like AQ etc.
78 that has a lower 2 pair.

Fish in my 1/2 game don't 3-bet jam into 2 players lightly on turns. I'd be surprised to see him show up with less than a set.

The loose player might have 78 or a flush draw I guess. You didn't say LAG though, so maybe he flats behind with AQ or pocket pairs. I think his range mostly consists of sets or Ax flush draws.

Honestly, I don't know if it's definitely the right play but I live to see another day. I dont see you being good often enough to make a call profitable.

I probably fold, not a lot of great 3 way scenarios for us. And yes flopped or turned sets can easily check first to act out of 4
